Excellent

A very complex, tenacious, governmental problem created by others had been dropped onto my lap. It was costing thousands of dollars per month. I sought Ms. Wilcox’s help. She and her staff persisted through layers of interference and delay from our government until their mistakes were corrected. She ...and her staff were very pleasant and professional and were extremely effective in resolving my problem. I recommend Briar Wilcox Esq. without reservation.

She's a bulldog

Briar is absolutely a no non-sense attorney. She is not going to coddle you by any means, but that's what you want in an attorney. She prepped me very well for court for which I am very grateful. Even on the days she was in court she would return my calls after hours or via email. I am very thankful ...I hired her for my family law case and would recommend her to anyone!

Divorce

Briar and her staff saved my life and my children. I called to let them know the violence that had been occurring in our home due to extreme alcohol abuse. I also had just found out about another cheating situation and I knew my children and I were sinking with the ship. I needed help and safety FAST.... Briar and her staff immediately took action the day I called. I felt safe again. They have walked me through every step and treated me with respect and care for my children’s BEST wellbeing. They helped me get my life back and all abuse was STOPPED.

Personal and professional service!

Briar and her staff were very professional from beginning to end of my case. She is very knowledgeable of family law and understands how the family court system works. She and her staff were very easy to work with and promptly answered any question or concern that I had during my case. I would defin...itely recommend Briar for any legal family issues.

Trustworthy and compassionate results

I hired Briar to help me with my family law issues. She understood my frustrations and was able to make me think about things I had not previously recognized. Briar has wonderful relationships with many attorneys so we were able to negotiate with opposing counsel in a friendly and progressive manner.... She obtained results in my case that I believed were unattainable and I owe my families peace of mind to Briar's hard work and dedication. She is one of the most knowledgeable, approachable and kind woman that I have ever known. My family and I owe our peace of mind to her and we will be eternally grateful.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
